WARNING
ACCESSORIES (SUPPLIES) — To ensure patient safety, use only
parts and accessories manufactured or recommended by GE.
Parts and accessories used must meet the requirements of the
applicable IEC 60601 series safety standards and essential
performance standards, and/or the system configuration must meet
the requirements of the IEC 60601-1-1 medical electrical systems
standard.
WARNING
ACCESSORIES (EQUIPMENT) — The use of accessory
equipment not complying with the equivalent safety requirements of
this equipment may lead to a reduced level of safety of the resulting
system. Consideration relating to the choice shall include:
„
use of the accessory in the patient vicinity; and
„
evidence that the safety certification of the accessory has been
performed in accordance to the appropriate IEC 60601-1 and/or
IEC 60601-1-1 harmonized national standard.
WARNING
ACCIDENTAL SPILLS — To avoid electric shock or device
malfunction, liquids must not be allowed to enter the device. If
liquids have entered a device, take it out of service and have it
checked by a service technician before it is used again.
WARNING
ACCURACY — If the accuracy of any value displayed on the
monitor, central station, or printed on a graph strip is questionable,
determine the patient's vital signs by alternative means. Verify that
all equipment is working correctly.
WARNING
ADJUSTING SYSTEM ALARM LEVELS — The Leads Fail
alarm indicates that one or more electrodes are not connected to the
patient and, as a result, there is loss of all waveforms and arrhythmia
analysis. The
ARR SUSPEND alarm indicates that arrhythmia
conditions are not being detected and therefore alarms associated
with arrhythmias will not occur. The
Leads Fail and ARR
SUSPEND alarms should be adjusted to a lower priority level only
by experienced qualified personnel and with great caution.
Adjusting these alarms to a lower priority level may result in
reduced awareness of conditions that indicate the loss of patient
monitoring.
